CONNECT TO YOUR ASSEMBLAGE POINT FOR ENHANCED HEALING

DATE : Saturday 27th September 2025 - Sunday 28th September 2025

TIME : Saturday 10 Am - 5 Pm And Sunday 10 Am – 4 Pm

COST : £270 - £300

VENUE : St Martins Hall, 109 Longridge Avenue,, Saltdean, Brighton, Sussex - East, BN2 8RB

DETAILS : CONNECT TO THE EPICENTRE OF YOUR ENERGY FIELD FOR ENHANCED BALANCE, HEALTH AND WELLBEING:

Immerse yourself in a healing weekend learning about the Assemblage Point and how to align it. All energy systems assemble from an epicentre; in the human body the centre of our energy field is the Assemblage Point. This is the main place where our energy field connects with our physical body.

The Assemblage Point is directly connected with our life force energy. The position of the Assemblage Point has a direct effect on our physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, and even biochemical health and well-being. If the Assemblage Point is too low, we will experience chronic fatigue; if it is too high, our behaviour will be manic and aggressive.

When the Assemblage Point is misaligned, it affects the shape and distribution of the human energy field. This influences biological energy and activity of organs and glands; this activity in turn determines the position of the Assemblage Point.

Participants will learn:

• The background behind the Assemblage Point and its effect on our energy fields
• To understand the Assemblage Point and the far-reaching healing benefits of aligning it
• The different positions of the Assemblage Point and what they mean
• How to find the position of the Assemblage Point
• How to re-align your Assemblage Point
• How to work with clients to re-align their Assemblage Point

You will learn the practice of aligning the Assemblage Point and build the confidence to incorporate this into your healing practice on day one. You will gain practical experience and the tools to achieve this over this largely experiential weekend.

Lin is passionate about empowering people to live life to their fullest potential, connecting with their light and their inner guidance. She brings over 40 years of experience with Sound Therapy, a lifetime of Healing/Energy work, and several decades of teaching/leading individuals and groups.

PAST CLIENT FEEDBACK on experiencing the Assemblage Point:

"Lin recently used the Assemblage Point process during a treatment - and what a magnificent tool!  At the time I could feel movement taking place in a variety of levels of my energy; significant shifts taking place.  And at the end of the treatment I felt considerably different from when I arrived.  But the shifts continued to manifest in the days that followed:  Changes on the mental level.  Changes on the emotional level.  And - most noticeable of all:  changes on the spiritual level.  There was a sense of my coming into alignment with my Soul.  New insights, new perspectives, a totally different approach to many things, large and small.  It was as if I had moved into a completely different place - one that was much more peaceful, aligned, balanced and stable.  An amazing result from what is - seemingly - a simple process.  The consequences are truly profound. 

Diana Savil, Light Channel"

“Every time Lin works on my Assemblage Point, I leave feeling centered, grounded and aligned - no matter what state I arrived in. Any chaos in my mind and my emotions, or feeling out of alignment with myself and the world around me, is always alleviated and pacified with the Assemblage Point work. I am able to find my way back to myself, to a clear energy channel, and a sense of ease in my being.” LH

Sound Healing with the Drum Practitioner Course:

Aoife and Sandie (both qualified Sacred Drumming Tutors trained by Steven and Renata Ash) look forward to welcoming you onto this year long course where you will dive deeply into connection with your drum, nature and your Spirit within. You will be learning how to give Sound Healing sessions with the drum, but also go on a deep journey of self-healing in the process.

Full details of requirements and prerequisites are on this page: https://www.collegeofsoundhealing.co.uk/curriculum_drum_healing.php.

However, the main prerequisite is an open heart and a sense of adventure. We work in Sacred Circle and we are all one in the circle.

Frame drums:
We would love you to come on a workshop with us first, to birth your own Shamanic frame drum which is a powerful and meaningful experience in itself. Alternatively, you may wish to use your own drum (subject to tutor approval).

The Practitioner Course:

Over the five modules, working with the Medicine Wheel, smudging herbs, animal and plant allies, stone people, and journeying practice, you will strengthen your spiritual relationship with the world around you and become centred and grounded in your body.

As you practice sound healing with drum and rattle, feather work, and group drumming, you will gain confidence in the power of sound and shamanic tools to heal and transform.

All modules and assignments must be completed for the fully accredited Sound Healing With The Drum Practitioner Diploma. A certificate of attendance will be awarded to those not wishing to become a practitioner.

            We very much look forward to drumming with you in our circle!

PART ONE - SHAMANIC HEALING PRACTITIONER TRAINING WORKSHOP

DATE : Tuesday 25th November 2025 - Wednesday 26th November 2025

TIME : 10am To 5pm

COST : £750 for both parts or £375 for each part. Price includes manual, certificate and online portal for support.

VENUE : Woodmansterne Village Hall, Carshalton Road, Woodmansterne, Surrey, SM7 3HR

DETAILS : This is a course comprised of 2 parts. Both parts and 12 case studies will need to be completed for Shamanic Healing Practitioner Certification.

This course is based on a traditional Lakota Grandfather Wallace Black Elk North Native American form of healing and lineage working with power animals and helping spirits, drumming, rattling, offering prayers and sacred chants.  

You will learn various healing techniques including shamanic power animal retrieval and soul retrieval on part 1 and soul energy release; intrusion removal or extraction and rattle healing on part 2. 

Shamanic Soul Retrieval enables people suffering from soul loss, which is an energetic fragmentation of the self, due to trauma, back to wholeness, through returning these lost soul fragments. Soul loss can be described as a self-mechanism to shield and protect you from the pain of trauma.

Within Shamanic practice, losing soul fragments essentially means losing your life force energy which is extremely disempowering. If the soul is not restored, the body can become so imbalanced that it causes mental, emotional, or physical disease.

During a Shamanic healing, we are either removing energy within our client that does not belong to them or we are returning energy that is outside our client that belongs within them such as their lost soul parts.

In our modern-day world, we are experiencing an epidemic of soul loss on a collective level. This may well be the cause of many of the issues that are detrimentally affecting our society today. Examples of such widespread issues include crime, disease, abusive relationships, addiction and mental health issues.

We feel more like ourselves when we are complete and whole in the present. Soul retrieval is one of the most effective Shamanic Healing methods. If you lose a soul part, it’s like a whole part of you is lost, as your split off soul part is like a holographic piece of you. 

When soul loss occurs, it may cause openings and gaps in your auric field. By returning your client’s soul part, you are essentially helping to restore their auric field and repair any tears that the soul loss caused.

The Shamanic Healing Practitioner Training Course is a follow on course for people who have already completed one of the College of Sound Healing Practitioner Courses or have completed other healing courses and are already practising other healing modalities. 

Full cost of training = £750

You have the option of payment £375 for each weekend separately.

Price includes manual, certificate and online portal for support.

Location: Woodmansterne Village Hall, 24 Carshalton Road, Woodmansterne, Surrey, SM7 3HR

Please note payments are non refundable 5 calendar weeks before the training begins. For cancellation policy please see website.

Finding Self

Life can be such a whirlwind of hectic busyness, stress, worry, anxiety, responsibilities, expectations, joys and disappointments. All of this constant activity and ‘noise’ can be overwhelming, can unbalance us, confuse and distract us from what’s important to us, and spin us out and away from our centre and sense of self. 

Throughout this day retreat we will explore ways to find some calm and balance, and to re-centre. More than this, we will practice various ways to find a deeper sense of ourselves within this storm, using breath, vocal and instrumental sound.

COST : £120

VENUE : Virginia Water Community Centre, Virginia Water Community Centre, Beechmont Avenue, Virginia Water, Surrey, GU25 4EY

DETAILS : This in-person workshop is a collaboration between CoSH tutors Alexandra Rigazzi-Tarling and Sarah Stephenson.

Their experience in the classical music industry as both performer and vocal coach, with a focus on technical voice collectively spans over 50 years!

For the last 10 years Sarah and Alexandra have worked as vocal sound healing trainers for the College of Sound Healing alongside their vocal coaching clients and feel called to offer their experience of the workings of the human voice to those in the vocal sound healing world.

This workshop will look at some of the many colours of the voice for Vocal Sound Healing through awareness of physiology and anatomy.

Key takeaways:

·       Exercises for healthy and efficient vocal practice

·       Exploration of vocal physiology and anatomy

·       Blasting the myths - common vocal problems

·       Relationship between breath and pure tone

·       Technical considerations for therapeutic voice work verses group leading

This workshop is suitable for those that:

·       Are both new or experienced using their voice in a healing context

·       Feel like they are lacking in confidence or knowledge in using and developing their voice for healing

·       Want to understand their voice at a deeper technical level with healing intention

This workshop is open to all within the above framework and counts as 7 hours sound healing CPD, as well as an additional workshop for the College of Sound Healing practitioner trainings.

TIME : CUT and PASTE this from DESCRIPTION

COST : CUT and PASTE this from DESCRIPTION

VENUE : The Harmony Hub, 15 Queen's Road, Chorley, Lancashire, PR71JU

DETAILS : Taught at The Harmony Hub in Lancashire, this course is located just off the M6 and M61 motorways and is accessible by rail and coach. There is ample free car parking opposite the venue.  

Though the course is non-residential, affordable accommodation is available nearby. Lunches and other daytime refreshments are included in the course costs.

The course tutor has over 30 years experience of teaching in a variety of settings and you will experience a range of styles and approaches to enable you to gain the very best from this course. To maximise learning and meet individual needs, course numbers will be small and you will be offered individual support and mentoring throughout.

Coursework and case studies are required between the formal taught sessions. This enables students to develop skills and techniques and to grow in confidence and competence. Full support is provided by the tutor who also fosters a supportive ethos, encouraging students to support one another.

The College of Sound Healing Gong Practitioner Training Course© is a CMA-certificated training programme taught over five weekends, over the period of one year. The course is made up of 70 hours formal training, plus practise, coursework, case studies, reading and individual mentoring in-between sessions. 

Completing this course gives students the information, knowledge, tools and qualification to be a Gong Practitioner. You will be recognised as able to treat people in a therapeutic setting both on a one-to-one basis or in groups.

This Course was written for the College by Sheila Whittaker, who is the senior College Gong Tutor, and advisor to the College on all gong-related matters. ​ 

Working with the Gong is a powerful personal journey. The various learning and experience opportunities require time for students to assimilate. As this course is taught over a year, each student is able to learn and develop at their own pace. The non-rushed nature of this course also supports students on their own individual Healing journey with the Gong. Clearing our own emotional baggage and raising vibration is a prerequisite for helping others to do so and you will be fully supported as you undertake that challenging but deeply rewarding inner work.

Each participant will need access to their own Gong by the 2nd weekend and support in selecting the best Gong for you will be given during Session 1.

Price - £290 per session (£1450 in total) A deposit of £100 secures your place on the course, with the balance for Session 1 and each of the remaining Sessions due a month beforehand.
